Neil A. Textor, 80, passed among his family after a 3 and a half year fight against Multiple Myeloma on July 31, 2023. He was born July 5th, 1943, in Toledo, OH.
Neil spent formative years in La Jolla CA, delivering newspapers, then from 1961-1999, at Safeway stores in southern CA, then moving to Grass Valley and Sutter. He and his family moved to Libby, MT in 1999. He had dreams of gold fever, which led him to areas such as Downie Ville, CA, and trips to Alaska. He would travel with family to Europe on occasion to try and culture himself, to no avail. His favorite pastimes were archery, golf, and consuming American Idol and reality television shows.
Neil was head elder and a member at St. John Lutheran Church.
Neil is survived by his beautiful wife Betty, whom he met in Grass Valley; his son Frank; step-children Chris Liotta, with grandchildren Allen, and Annabelle, of Forest Grove, OR, as well as Elissa Liotta, with grandchild Cassidy, of Beaverton, OR.
A fisherman, a hunter, a golfer, and a significant stint as your helpful hardware man. He will be sorely missed at his annual hunting trip with old friends but will be remembered.
Arrangements are under the care of the Schnackenberg Funeral Home of Libby.
